I saw someone comment somewhere else (then I lost it) that it would be a good idea for anyone with old issues to look back through the articles to see if anything of note is there.
A thought of my own is that such magazines might have been a way to subvert young minds. The kids sneak the magazines, see their first sexual images, then that could get tied to whatever is next to them? Trigger words, items, ideas?
I don't think that "mind control" really works like that. I mean it's pretty clear that our government has developed some means to manipulate people into behaving weirdly, but in practice I think what they do is they run a false flag on someone who is already impressionable with a combination of drugs and bullying. And then they roll the dice.
It's not like your brain has some secret receptors in it that I can "hack" or something to make you begin behaving like a robot. Can you bully people? Obviously. Manipulate people? Absolutely. But it would be difficult to get a reliable agent to go against his instincts, against his family, against his country. "Brainwashed people", and that's a terrible word for it, are unpredictable.
My point is that I don't think that this works the way that you think it does.
One way to look at what Hefner did -- or was available over a long period of time
to do -- for the CIA would have been to convince men that women are simply
sexual objects. Did Hefner help do that?
This would have been part of the CIA's response to getting women out of
the workplace after WWII and the anticipation that women would continue
to rise in our societies and continue their revolution to free all women from
oppression by patriarchy in all of our societies.
Most often, as well, those women who sought lives of their own -- other
than existing for home and childbearing -- were often featured in Hollywood
which became a very special TARGET for right wing in the McCarthy Era.
Undeniably, it was liberals in Hollywood who were targeted and removed.
Same throughout the American government where the goal was to purge
liberals from government. This continued on with new impetus after the
coup on JFK (where liberals were a threat in raising new investigations and
investigations of the CIA via Frank Church).
Another attack which seems very definitely CIA inspired would be the CIA/NRA
targeting of liberals -- and moderates -- in both parties who stood against the
CIA/NRA model of an armed American public. (Except for AA's of course ...
except for the times that the FBI were trying to accuse AA's of starting a race war.)
“Oh we do have our stable of weird people working for us. Did I ever tell you about the Pedophile Academy? We actually had one down at Camp Peary, (in Virginia) right near (the CIA’s) Jim Critchfield’s place. I don’t know if you’re aware of it, but we called it ‘The Farm,’ and it was supposed to be a secret training center for young agents. Allen Dulles set up this training center down there for pedophiles. They were in training to seduce, molest, and most especially photograph the young children of targets. Not only, Allen reasoned, would our graduates have a spanking good time but they could get wonderful action photos of the wee ones to blackmail their families with. I understand they broke it up when one of the graduates nailed a (CIA) Deputy Director’s son at a summer camp.”

If you want to support Hefner and the perversions of CIA why not just say so clearly?
For example ...

You don't fool me trying to blend in. You can hardly stand it when you can't push your anti-family and divide men and women agenda.
